JAJPUR, APR 9 : Hundreds of supporters of BJP leader Himanshu Sekhar Sahu, a ticket aspirant for the Dharmasala Assembly seat, took out a bike rally on Tuesday and staged a demonstration in front of the party office in Bhubaneswar, protesting against the party nominating Smrutirekha Pahi for the same seat.

The party had announced the names of 112 candidates on April 12. For the Dharmasala seat, the party has nominated Smrutirekha. Immediately after the party announced her name, the supporters of Himanshu, who had been lobbying for a ticket for the same seat, staged a sit-in at the state party office in Bhubaneswar.

They demanded the cancellation of Smrutirekha’s ticket. They camped at the party office for two days and they agreed to return only after the party functionaries promised them to look into their demand.
